Tropical Storm Thomas

Dear guests
Some of you are scheduled to arrive to Jamaica soon.
Based on NOAA predictions Jamaica is now under 5 days cone of influence of the Tropical Storm Thomas.
Currently, our Resorts are not affected, we are open to all arrivals and the weather is nice.
We will be watching weather evolution and NOAA announcements closely. Updates will be posted here on the message board.http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/graphics_at1...daynl#contents

As you know Couples Resorts has a hurricane policy
This policy applies only if:
The storm is declared a hurricane
and
Jamaica is under 3 days cone of influence as per NOAAhttp://couples.com/01-HurricanePolicy.htm

I tried calling the 800 number and they are closed on Sunday. We're supposed to fly out on Wednesday and I hate to get there and then have to evacuate the next day. I'll lose the airfare even if Couples gives a credit for the resort days.

We're going with the flow on this one...we leave Tuesday, arrive Wednesday. The Stormpulse link is a good one to see the track and that the forecasted route continues to change, currently more north and away from Jamaica. If we have a few cloudy/rainy days at the end of our trip, so be it - we're still coming!

Hope to celebrate with sunshine

My husband and I are planning to celebrate our 20th anniversary at CTI, starting 11/5. I sure hope the predictions for Tomas are ALL wrong! We have been so excited and looking forward to this, now just feeling sick and sad ...

It's probably still too early to have a good understanding of the true potential impact to Jamaica. We are scheduled to arrive on Saturday and as long as flights are running, we will be there.

We have been to Jamaica a number of times... the same week every year. One time, we got caught in the tail end of a hurricane. The rooms on the first floor flooded. But, the storm ended and they started to fix things up immediately. All was back to normal in a couple of days.

The bottom line is that the resort will do everything in it's power to make things right. Actually, it has become one of our favorite memories. The good thing about rain in JA is that it is so warm it is almost fun to be out in it. We would be happy without the wind though.

Keep the positive thoughts going. Hopefully the storm will miss or be greatly diminished. Hope to see everyone at CSS on Saturday.
